What’s New: This year Falcons Field Hockey Club will field 2 Men’s teams in Winter League. We will be
entering a Premiere B team, and a Competitive team and want to invite players from the U-16 and U-18 teams as well as old vets and newcomers to join us. This season will be great for personal growth for the players who commit to full-time. A chance to play with veteran players with national and provincial experience as well as years of Men’s League experience. It’s an opportunity to play all year round and hone your skills and play against a stronger group of players than you are currently used to. Teams will consist of 6-10 veteran players, 6-10 Full-time Junior players. This will be adjusted as positions are filled.

Goals: To continue the process of rebuilding a men’s program and in so doing elevate the play of our U-16 and U-18 junior players for the following Spring League. This is also a chance to further develop those players who have been invited to play in the provincial program and to start a process of elite level player development. Finally to develop the men’s program so that it supports club level players in their personal development, as coaches, players and quality social members. This club had great players at all levels and that’s what made it special to everyone involved. ( Not everyone wants to be an elite level player, some want to be social members and play good competitive hockey. A club needs all of these people to be successful and grow. )
